Life can be a difficult one. We're faced with harsh realities constantly. Having a rough childhood, I understood early that there's eventually a time when one just needs to escape. I choose art's diverse and eccentric children as an escape. Let my own works be a vacation for your mind, a relief that someone else has felt what you have. I portray my multi-media pieces to capture various issues, mainly focusing on social & political ones, like EQUAL CIVIL RIGHTS /​ ANTI_​SEXISM /​ EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE /​ MUSIC /​ ECONOMICS /​ SOCIALIZING fathoming that you'll empathize with, or argue against them. My childhood passions and traumas, associated studies at Miami Dade Wolfson Campus, in addition to activities with South Florida based non-profit organizations are cantankerous focal influences upon my artworks. TRY LOOKING AT MY ART WORKS & WORDS WITH AN OPEN MIND. OPINION ISN'T FACT.This gallery changes periodically to the series running along side my Instagram/​ Twitter/​ Tumblr pages. Check them out to also capture a sense for how I create the pieces displayed or the life events /​people that inspire me most. I simply long to inspire and be inspired. Contact me, preferably by email, for any inquiries.

Description

A woman is the primary source for procreation of the human species. She carries the seed for, more or less, nine months. The miracle that is all of us first sprouts life in her womb! Women are a spectacular phenomenon in a universe in-which, we men, assume to be the pinnacle of sentience. In the fact that woman suffer more than their male counter parts, I personally made this piece in awe of the female condition, marveling at their astounding resilience and adaptability on earth. In celebration of the woman's taxing labor in carrying the future generations, this piece depicts a woman swollen with child.

When Sight Failed Me

Description

I noticed that a lot of things would elude my better judgments, being fooled by words instead of actions. I wasted time on individuals that wouldn't have and didn't reciprocate the same feelings. It's ok to be trusting, but safeguard yourself from those that dispitfully use you.
